OF 



THE CHRISTMAS BAZAAR. 



HISTORY. 

It is a natural impulse that turns the mind, upon the completion 
of a successful undertaking, to a retrospect of its progress. This 
impulse is especially strong where an enterprise has been under- 
taken in behalf of an object enlisting our deepest sympathies, and 
when the success achieved has been not only in the highest degree 
gratifying, but one exceeding our most sanguine expectations. 
Such an enterprise has been the Christmas Bazaar just held in our 
city, under the auspices of the Ladies' Hospital Relief Association, 
such a success its results ; and we cannot forbear glancing backward 
from the finally prosperous tide, to the little rills that marked our 
" small beginnings," and tracing, with mingled pleasure and grati- 
tude, their course, as one and another tributary came in, until they 
swelled to a broad, strong current, which has borne forward rich 
freight for the suffering soldiers in our army. 

Other motives also influence us in reviewing our proceedings in 
a published report, such as the obligation we are under to express 
our acknowledgments to those who have so freelj'' aided us, and to 
let them know the result to which they have contributed ; the wish 
to give to others any benefit which may be derived from our expe- 
rience ; and the desirableness of furnishing those who were engaged 
in the Bazaar, or were present during its progress, an easy and 
expeditious mode of answering the various questions asked concern- 
ing it. 

A year since, our association gave a Christmas Festival in Corin- 
thian Hall, just previous to Christmas, continuing two evenings and 



4 HISTORY OF THE BAZAAR. 

one day, including refreshments and sale tables througliout the day 
and evenings, and tableaux in the evenings. This festival, which 
was the most successful thing of the kind that had been held in 
our city up to that time, both in respect to attractiveness and profit, 
yielded $760 to our treasury. From that time to the present the 
accessions to our funds have been in comparatively small sums, and 
the result principally of occasional donations from individuals and 
associations. The proceeds of the sale of a picture, and of an enter- 
tainment given by the Carpenters and Joiners, about $80 each, 
were among the largest of these sums, until the Thanksgiving Col- 
lections, which amounted, the portion paid into our treasury, to 
$270. The total receipts for the present of&cial year, commencing 
the middle of January, have not averaged $100 per month. 

Early in the summer the plan was proposed of securing a uni- 
form income through monthly subscriptions, and the city was divi- 
ded into districts, and the necessary papers were prepared for this 
purpose. The matter was, however, delayed until August, through 
the difficulty of finding ladies willing to undertake the tedious and 
thankless office of canvassing the city. At that time our waning 
exchequer called loudly for some energetic measures in its behalf, 
and the society voted to enter at once upon the work of raising 
monthly subscriptions. But our ranks had become thinned, not 
more than a dozen eflPective members "reporting for duty" at this 
time, and it was found impossible, with the small force subject to 
the draft for this work, to secure its efficient prosecution. But two 
wards, the Third and Seventh, have been canvassed at all, and in 
these, collections have been made but once, with the exception of 
one district in the Third Ward, from which a second has been re- 
ceived. 

With these facts before us, a resort to some other means was 
imperative, and lectures, concerts, &c., passed successively in review, 
to be, for various reasons, successively dismissed or postponed. A 
Bazaar had been occasionally suggested by some who had confidence 
in its feasibility, as something that would enlist a more general in- 
terest, and secure a more extensive co-operation than any other plan; 
but the project had been overruled by the prevailing opinion, that 
however successful this means had been in St. Louis, Cleveland, 
Buffalo, &c., it would never do in Rochester. 

At the close of September our accounts exhibited a balance in 
the treasury of one cent. A special meeting was called on the last 



HISTORY OF THE BAZAAR. 6 

day of September, and a Standing Committee on Finances appointed, 
whose duty it was made to devise means for raising funds, and to 
act as a Committee of Arrangements in carrying out any plan that 
should be adopted by the Society, upon their recommendation. 
This Committee included twelve members : the seven officers of the 
society and five other ladies appointed by the President. A quorum 
of the Committee being present, they agreed at once, under the 
urgency of the occasion, upon the proposal to hold a Bazaar, which 
proposal was immediately adopted by the Society. A general plan 
of action was then arranged, and a Committee of two ladies, mem- 
bers of the Committee of Arrangements, appointed to visit Bufialo, 
and obtain from the ladies who had been connected with a similar 
enterprise there, such information as would guide us in making 
further preparations. 

The movement was thus fairly inaugurated upon paper ^ but it 
was still three weeks or more before, with two or three exceptions, 
the work was taken hold of as something to be actually accomplish- 
ed. Notwithstanding the action of the Society, many, probably 
the majority, of those who thus assented to the project, under the 
conviction of a necessity for making a strong effort, and with a 
willingness and desire to work energetically for it, were yet appre- 
hensive as to the result of the experiment. It seemed at first a 
mammoth undertaking, with no tangible points — a castle in the air, 
which could not be brought down from the clouds to an accessible 
position on terra firma. Adverse counsels, too, were urged upon 
the Society from without, by those whose opinions carried weight, 
by gentlemen who regarded the plan from a business point ; and 
others who, from a familiarity with the details of similar operations 
in other places, spoke with reference to the immense labor which 
it would involve. 

The Committee of Arrangements, however, impelled by the ne- 
cessity of action, and feeling a confidence in the general principle, 
that " what man has done man can do," ventured to proceed, pre- 
paring more fully the details of action, designating the various 
Committees to be appointed, and assigning their specific duties. 
This done, the machinery, with its wheels set in working order, 
waited, an inert mass, for the moving spirit, the mainspring of 
confidence and enthusiasm that was necessary to make it a thing 
of life. 

There were some auspicious symptoms, however, during this 



6 HISTORY OF THE BAZAAR. 

chrysalis period, some indications that the wings would in time 
develop. The first substantial encouragement was afforded by the 
visit of our delegation to the ladies prominently connected with 
the Bazaar in Buffalo, and it gives us here no ordinary pleasure to 
express our obligation to the latter for the courtesy and cordiality 
which marked our reception, the interest with which they entered 
into our plans, giving us all needed information, making suggestions 
derived from their own experience, and generously placing at our 
disposal any appliances remaining of their own Bazaar, which 
could be available for our use. 

One booth was taken in charge just before the visit to Buffalo, 
and the preparations for it were entered upon with much spirit, and 
a week or two subsequently another was adopted with that decision 
and earnestness which always inspire confidence in others. Some 
other movements, previously in contemplation, began about the 
same time to assume shape ; so that toward the last of October, or 
nearly a month from the inception of the enterprise, we began to 
feel assurance that it was at last embarked upon a tide that was 
setting in toward success. 

Before passing to the brighter period of our work, we cannot 
refrain, in this connection, from testifying our appreciation of the 
aid received in its early stages from Mr. W. A. Keynolds, Mr. H. 
Searle and Mr. S. Wilder, whom we remember as the Lafayettes 
of the cause, coming to our aid when we were " few and feeble," 
and struggling against manifold discouragements. To Mr. Keynolds 
we are indebted not only for the general and unvarying interest 
which he manifested in all the arrangements of the Bazaar, from 
the time it was first brought before him, to its close; but also for 
some of its most attractive features. The Art Gallery was due 
exclusively to his suggestion, and its decided success, both in an 
artistic and pecuniary sense, are to be attributed almost entirely to 
his taste and indefatigable efforts. Our columns of published dona- 
tions, too, show that our obligations did not terminate here; that the 
use of Corinthian Hall eleven days and evenings, including the 
time of preparation and removal, was most generously added to our 
long list of favors received. 

Mr Searle was the presiding genius whose wand transformed 
Corinthian Hall into a magical, cosmopolitan scene, — a work into 
which he entered with all the enthusiasm of the artist, and to which 
he devoted a large portion of his valuable time. We are indebted 



HISTORY OF THE BAZAAR. 7' 

to him not only for the time and skill for which he would allow no 
compensation, but for the new life which he infused into our work 
by the heartiness and vigor with which he entered upon it himself- 

In Mr. Wilder we recognize one of the early pillars of the Ba- 
zaar. A believer in its success from the outset, he was an enthu- 
siastic co-worker for it and with it in every possible way, nearly 
every department experiencing the benefit of his zeal and munifi- 
cence. 

From about the last of October our Bazaar entered upon a new 
phase. The crust of discouragement had broken up; the seed 
which had been planted displayed signs of vitality, and was already 
shooting upward into what, from this time forward, was a constant 
and rapid growth. The pronoun im from this time began to assume 
a wider signification than the limits of any committee or association, 
extending to include the citizens of Rochester and vicinity. A 
vortex of interest was now perceptible, which any one could easily 
foresee must inevitably widen and deepen until the whole commu- 
nity was drawn into its whirling current. 

And such was the case. The cause to be benefited was one which 
of all others enlisted the most universal and intense interest, calling 
out as it did the patriotic and benevolent sympathies of the whole 
loyal community, and without which such a work could not have 
been commenced ; but, apart from this, there was an attractiveness, 
a fascination, in the work itself, that was almost irresistible. Many 
who at first, on account of ill health or pressing occupations, ab" 
stained from a participation in it, found themselves, almost before 
they were aware of it, moving along with the tide. Ere long the 
whole community was thoroughly aroused, and "The Bazaar" 
became the one absorbing topic. Wo, now, to any adverse plans 
and purposes that ventured near the outer verge of this fatal mael- 
strom, fur they were sure to be wrecked. 

It is not easy to trace the further rapid development of our 
enterprise, but it will always be a joy to remember it — the earnest- 
ness, liberality, efficiency and good feeling with which all came up 
to the work — the harmony of feeling and action, the decidedly 
Union character of the whole. Here were representatives of all 
the nationalities and religious creeds in our city, Catholic, Protes- 
tant and Hebrew, working heartily together with equal interest in 
one common cause, proud to be ranged together under one banner, 
and gladly bringing their offerings to one common altar — our Covn- 
try's. 



8 THE BAZAAR BULLETIN. 

Nothing was more interesting than the manner in which members 
of other distinct Aid organizations in our city, those doing a noble 
work of their own, and acting through different channels from our 
Association, came forward. Asking no questions, imposing no con- 
ditions, they threw their whole heart and energy into the work, 
their efficiency telling largely in its good results. It was enough 
for them that it was for our soldiers. 

The delegations and bountiful donations, too, constantly arriving 
from the country, attested the interest which the occasion had in- 
spired throughout a wide circle beyond our city limits. 

Great assistance was rendered us by several gentlemen, in con- 
ducting the business of the occasion, among whom we would espe- 
cially mention Mr. A. S. Mann, who, beside generous contributions 
to our funds, devoted his whole time to it during its continuance, 
and much before and afterward, rendering us invaluable aid in 
many ways, but especially in the capacity of Greneral Treasurer. 
Mr. J. H. Brewster and Mr. C F. Smith have our hearty thanks 
for the faithfulness and perseverance with which they discharged 
the ai-duous duties of the Ticket Committee; also Mr. S. W. Up- 
dike, Mr. H. D. Scrantom, and other gentlemen, for their assistance 
in various wavs before and during the Bazaar. 



The "Bazaar Bulletin." 
Five numbers of a little paper, entitled the "Bazaar Bulletin," 
were issued during Bazaar week, extracts from which and from the 
daily papers will give an idea of the progress from day to day 
after the opening : 

The Bazaar was opened last evening a few minutes after the hour (7 o'clock) 
that had been announced in the progran\nie, and now a successful opening is no 
longer a inattei- of hope or faith, but a solid fact. Long before the time for 
ingress to the Hall, a dense crowd had assembled outside, which, upon open- 
ing the doors, soon occupied every foot of space that could be reserved for them 
in the Hall. 

The display presented might well be called bewUderingly beautiful. Every- 
body was there, and everybody was delighted — charmed. Even those who 
had been behind the scenes sufficiently to know something of the magnitude 
of the preparations making, the liberality of the contributions offered, and the 
skill and taste enlisted in the work, were ntit among the least surprised when 
they saw the "embodiment of all this in a scene which, it could be easily ima- 
gined, had been evoked by Aladdin's lamp. 

It is of course impossible, in our short space, to enter at all into the minutia3 
of the scene. Suffice it to say it was a brilliant success, under whatever aspect 
we view it, whether of pride, pleasure or pa>/. We were all proud of the skill, 
taste, energy and patriotism of the ladies of our city who have entered into 
this work, of the gentlemen who have so generously aided them, and of the 
artistic skill displayed in tlie architectural, scenic and landscape decorations. 
We were all pleased, too, with the beautiful result, with the audience, and with 
everybody generally. But the climax of good is, that \\ paid. The receipts 
were gratifyiugly large for the first evening, when, it is to be expected, a good 



NOTICES OP THE PRESS. 9 

deal of time is occupied in sight-seeing, that will afterward be given to busi- 
ness. 

We may now confidently look forward to the result of our Bazaar, as one 
that will not leave Rochester behind her sister cities in similar enterprises in 
the soldiers' behalf. — Bazaar Bulletin, Dec. 15. 

Third Day. — The receipts for the day and evening, deposited with the Gen- 
eral Treasurer, amounted to $2,906, making the sum total of receipts to the 
present time, over $6,000. Eleven hundred single tickets were sold at the 
door in the evening, which, added to the large number of course tickets issued, 
will give some idea of the immense crowd that pressed for admission upon the 
opening of the doors. When the hall was packed to oveiflowing, as many 
remained outside, a large part of whom patiently waited an opportunity to fill 
up vacancies, when a slow current commenced setting outwards. The density 
of the crowd was thus but little diminished up to a late hour in the evening. 

We understand several/bm(/« delegations were in attendance during the day 
and evening, from towns near and remote, including representatives from Al- 
bany and Buffalo. In extending a hearty welcome to all, we caimot forbear 
expressing our obligation to ladies from the latter city, for the encouragement 
they gave us in the outset of our enterprise, through the cordial interest they 
manifested in it, and the valuable assistance they rendered. If our success 
has approximated their own, it has been partly due to their own generous co- 
operation in the commencement of our undertaking. — Bazaar Bulletin, Dec. 17. 

OuK Young Waiters. — The chief attractions, undoubtedly, in our arrange- 
ments for refreshments, are the young ladies who wait upon the tables, in 
their pretty costumes — red skirt, white apron and garibaldi, and blue peasant 
waist, which they have fitted up so tastefully, and which, with the coquettish 
little head-dress, that caps ike climax, has a charming effect. These young la- 
dies, however, are not merely ortiamental, as the testimony of the ladies in 
charge can prove. They have entered into the ivork of the occasion with a 
heartiness and aptness that has given them a decided position among the use- 
ful members of the Bazaar, and elicited warm commendations from the ladies 
who have found in them valuable aids. — Bazaar Bulletin, Dec. 17. 

Fourth and Fifth Days. — During the past two days, the rush to the 
Hall has been fully maintained, 1300 tickets having been sold at the door last 
evening, beside nearly 200 elsewhere. The slow currents into and from the 
Hall through the evening give access to a number two or three times as great 
as could occupy it at any one time. There seem, up to the present time, no 
indications of the slightest diminution, but, on the contrary, an increase, of 
public interest. Those who have been present from the first are just as desi- 
rous to come again, and new ones are constantly being brought into the widen- 
ing circle of curiosity to witness it, and interest themselves in its progress. 

The receipts during Thursday and Friday averaged a little over two tliou- 
sand dollars a day, the precise amount being $5,2.38. This gives a total of re- 
ceipts for the five days, ending Friday night, of over $10,000. The intensity 
and continuance of interest, the amount of receipts, and the entire and bril- 
liant success of the Bazaar generally, are unprecedented in this community, 
and have astonished every one — none more than those who first engaged in the 
enterprise, and ventured to put out to sea, trusting to the same favoring cur- 
rents in human nature that had borne others so prosperously along. — Bazaar 
BiUletin, Dec. 19. 

Notices of the Press. 

If any doubt had been felt concerning the success of the Christmas Bazaar, 
now being held under the auspices of the Ladies' Hospital Relief Association, 
they were completely dispelled by the popular demonstration at Corinthian 
Hall last evening. For a full hour before the opening of the doors, an im- 
mense crowd besieged tiie entrance, and placed a living, surging embargo on 
Exchange Place. There were at least two good acres of people wlio had seve- 
rally striven to have the veiy first glimpse at the Grand Bazaar, and had 
accordingly presented themselves an hour before the time announced for the 
opening. How well they all succeeded, their disheveled and tumultuous indi- 
vidual experiences can painfully attest. 



10 NOTICES OF THE PRESS. 

But once inside, everybody was delighted. We have not now either the 
space or time to present a description which would afford any proper concep- 
tion of this marvelous spectacle. It is unrivaled by anything that has prece- 
ded it here, and for bewildering magnificence, is probably unsurpassed by any 
similar exhibition elsewhere. We dare say that an inventory of its effects 
would do no discredit to a world's fair, for all the nations of the world seem to 
have contributed their quoca of pleasing novelties to the Bazaar. * # # « 

There is but one thing to be regretted, viz : tlie insulBciency of the Hall for 
the public accommodation ; but as the entertainment will continue at least a 
week, perhaps all our citizens Avill be afforded an opportunity of visiting the 
Bazaar, and contributing in some measure to the noble object for which it was 
designed. * * "* * # . * # 

We learn that the receipts for sales at the Bazaar, last evening, exceeded 

■"■J. — Democrat, Dec. 15. 

Corinthian Hall, now converted into a grand Bazaar, is the scene of all attrac- 
tion. It is thronged day and night. The receipts up to last night, had ex- 
ceeded $3,000. 

Excellent dinners are furnished by the ladies, and hundreds partake of 
them. There are many things to be seen and admired, and purchased too, at 
reasonable prices. Those who want to see something very attractive, as well 
as those who want to purchase holiday gifts, sliould go to the Bazaar. All the 
cash expended there goes to the relief of sick and wounded soldiers. 

Nothing lias ever been gotten up here, in the way of a fair, which would 
bear comparison with this ; and there was never an enterprise of a similar 
character, which commanded so generally the efforts of all classes in commu- 
nity. The success of the Bazaar is the hope of all. Then let all do their best 
to make the effort a success. It is hardly necessary to urge any one to attend 
the Bazaar. At the rate the thing is running now, we may be called upon to 
ask people who have been once, to stay away and let others in. Yet, so far, 
all have been pretty well accommodated, we believe, though the attendance is 
large. 

The statement as to the terms of admission, made in this paper yesterday, 
thougli sent in by those concerned in the management, was not correct. Ii is 
now stated that the single tickets are available at any time when the Bazaar is 
open, viz : from 12 M. lo 4 P. M., and from 7 P. M. till 10 1-2 P. M., when it 
closes. 

The street cars run till 11 P. M.on the several routes, to accommodate people 
attending the Bazaar in the evening. — Uiiion, I6th. 

The Bazaar is the absorbing topic of discussion in every quarter. In the 
home circle, on tlie street, in the stores, by day and night, among old and 
young, high and low, rich and poor, grave and gay, it is the transcendant 
theme. Everybody goes. Everybody admiies. Everybody carries away 
some pretty or substantial token of sympathy for "the sick and wounded sol- 
diers," or in acknowledgment at least, of the in-esistible manner in which the 
poor fellows' claims are presented by the Ladies' Hospital Aid Association of 
Rochester. 

All yesterday and last evening, during the hours of exhibition, Corinthian 
Hall was filled to its greatest capacity by a happy and enthusiastic multitude, 
crazy to see and eager to spend ; and hundreds of the same class went away 
dui'ing the evening, unable to oVjtain admission. » * * * » 

The best time to visit the Hall during the day is precisely at 12. M., when 
the sonorous wail of the Higliland bagpipe announces that lunch is ready. 
The centre of the Hall is appropriated to square little tables invitingly spread 
for the accommodation of all who clioose to partake. The bill of fare is unex- 
ceptionable, and tlie young ladies who have the supervision of this important 
feature impart a decided relish to the banquet by the surprising alacrity with 
wliich they respond to the call for "extras!" Let our poor hungry soldiers 
think of the comfortable dollar lunches which their friends are putting away 
for their benefit under these pleasant circumstances, and be content with their 
deprivation. — Bemocrat, 16th. 

There was another great rush to the Bazaar yesterday and last night. The 



NOTICES OF THE PRESS. 11 

receipts were about $3,000. The attraction at the outset continiies, and is 
nightly increased by the addition of new things. There is a world of amuse- 
ment in going to the Bazaar. With its variety of shows and entertainments, 
it is a complete museum and gallery of fine arts combined, and we may add, 
first class hotel with " polite and attentive " hostesses. 

The Bazaar is wliere you get the worth of your money, and contribute all 
you pay to a very desirable object — the relief of the sick and wounded sol- 
diers. — Union, Dec. 17. 

Have you seen the Bazaar ? Have you seen the Fairy Land — the gorgeous 
booths — the ricli and innumerable variety of holiday gifts — the " grate show " 
— the truly splendid art gallery, the Stereoscopic Gallery, and in fact the Ba- 
zaar and its Bazaarian connections, including the polite and attentive waiter 
girls? If you have ha-v-e-n'nt, it is time you had h-a-d. Last night the 
pressure was quite up to 200 pounds to the square inch, and fully sufficient to 
prevent the mixing up of the assembly — to allow different purchasers to peep 
luto different booths. — Express, 18th. 

The Bazaar. — The attraction at Corinthian Hall where the ladies are hold- 
ing their grand Bazaar, continues unabated. There was a large attendance 
yesterday, and a jam last night. The receipts were upwards of $2,000, and 
will average that amount per day. These are of course the gross receipts, and 
there is a considerable bill of expenses to be deducted. 

To-morrow niglit will close the week for which the Bazaar is advertised. 
We need not urge upon people of the city to attend, for it seems that every- 
body is going. And many come in from abroad, and they go home to tell their 
friends what a beautiful affair the ladies have here. 

Donations continue to be received, and are very acceptable. Send in any- 
thing you have that will sell, or that can be applied for the benefit of the sol- 
diers. The ladies are mucli in want of cream as an ingredient for making ice 
cream. Donations of this article will be regarded with special favor, now that 
so much ice cream can be sold at the Bazaar. — Express, Dec. I9th. 

The original plan of the Bazaar contemplated only six days' exhibition, 
which it was thouglit would fully satisfy the demands of sight-seers, and afford 
ample time for disposing of all articles offered for sale. But the week has 
almost expired, without any perceptible decrease in the number of spectators, 
and but little diminution of tlie enthusiasm which clmracterized the opening 
night. If it were a penal offence for anybody to dine outside of the Bazaar, 
it is possible there might be a severer pressure in that direction, but we doubt 
whether any more could find accommodation at the tables ; and if ricli pecu- 
niary avails, instead of deficits, were tlie reward of all wlio succeeded in get- 
ting within the same enchanting domain between 6 and 9 P. M., there could 
be no livelier competition than we have witnessed at such intervals during the 
entire week. The sales at the Bazaar have been correspondingly large, not 
tliat the mercantile trade has been suspended, but seemingly because all the 
oddities and niceties in creation, cverytliing that can gratify the taste or indulge 
the fancy, have by some mysterious dispensation been converted into articles 
of prime necessity, and command fabulous estimates. Tiie total cash sales for 
the week will probably exceed $13,000 The Managers have decided to con- 
tinue the Bazaar on Monday and Tuesday of next week, and it is unnecessaiy 
to add that tlie public will cordially approve the decision. 

And during the two succeeding days our citizens sliould not overlook the 
splendid attiactions of the Art Gallery, which presents the finest collection of 
paintings ever exhibited in this city, and not easily surpassed elsewhere. 
They are nearly all from the diawing-iooms of our wealthier citizens, and em- 
brace some of the best originals of Kossiter, Beard, Sontag, Lily Spencer, and 
other American artists of high repute. Under no other circumstances could 
these unpurchaseable productions have been obtained for public exhibition, 
and the lovers of art will scarcely fail to improve so rare an opportunity for 
aesthetic enjoyment. Some of our most gifted home artists have contributed 
to the gallery works of theii- own production, wiiich challenge the admiration 
of spectators, and invests with a pleasanter charm this excellent feature of the 
Grand Bazaar. 



12 NOTICES OF THE PRESS. 

The Exchange street bi'anch of the Bazaar has been operated very success- 
fully by Mr. Barton, who has disposed of nearly all the contributions consigned 
to that department, realizing a handsome sum for the Association. Most of 
the perishable commodities have been equitably divided between the Protes- 
tant and Catholic Orphan Asylums, the City Hospital, Home for the Friendless 
and Industrial School. What remains, is to-day to be distributed among the 
indigent families of volunteers. Those who would avail themselves of such 
donations need only to obtain the Mayor's certificate of identity, and their 
claims will be duly honored upon personal application at Nos. 7 and 9 Ex- 
change street. — Democrat, Dec. I9th. 

The work accomplished by the ladies managing the Bazaar is almost incred- 
ible. The result of this labor is shown in the aggregate receipts up to last 
evening, which amounted to $8,000. The attractions still increase, and con- 
tinue to draw the same crowded houses. Owing to the excessive fatigue 
superinduced by their great exertions, the ladies did not open the Bazaar until 
12 M. to-day. — Express, I9th. 

The Ladies' Bazaar has proved to be so successful that it is "to be continued," 
like a Ledger story. The five days it has been in operation, Corinthian Hall 
has been constantly filled with people, and in every department the exhibi- 
tion and sale has been a decided success. This is the last day of the Fair 
under the first announcemenl, and the original intention of the managers. At 
the suggestion of hundreds, and in accordance with what appears to be the 
unanimous opinion of all who have taken an interest in the affair — the Bazaar 
will be continued two days of next week, Monday and Tuesday. 

The indications are that to-day will be one of the best of the week. If so, 
the receipts will be between twelve and thirteen thousand dollars. 

The attraction of the exhibition is in no wise diminished, nor will it be next 
week. The beautiful articles exhibited and sold already will not be removed 
till the close of tlie exhibition. The stocks of small articles, fancy goods, (fee, 
are kept up, and will be to the end. The visitor of Monday and Tuesday will 
see just as much as those who have already been there. 

The A.ri Gallery will also continue open Monday and Tuesday. It is not 
the least attractive part of the exhibition. There are rare and beautiful paint- 
ings, many of which could not be purchased at any price. And the show of 
art productions is very large. Everybody of taste who attends the Bazaar, 
goes through the Art Gallery of course. 

We are requested to state that season tickets to the Bazaar will be good to 
the close of the exhibition. — Union, Dec. 19. 

This is the eighth and last day of the Grand Bazaar, and the affair will close 
to-night, with a rush of course. There lias been a rush all the time since it 
opened, and if the receipts have not been large enough, it is because the Hall 
was too small to accommodate those who would have attended and patronized 
the exhibition. 

The receipts will foot up over $15,000, and the net profits about $10,000. 
This beats the great Buffalo Bazaar, and we think exceeds the amount taken 
at any similar establishment in any other city, in proportion to population. 

The sale of goods by auction is taking place to-day, and will be continued 
to-night at reduced prices, till all are sold. 

The Bazaar has not h)St its attractions, which are numerous. Mr. Dawson, 
of the Albany Journal, was here on Saturday, with other Albanians, who are 
taking lessons to run the Albany Bazaar in February. He writes to his paper 
at length on the exhibition, speaking in high praise of the show, complaining 
of nothing but the crowd and want of room. — Utiion, Dec. 22. 

Rochester, December 19. 
I have been greatly pleased with the opportunity I have had of visiting the 
Bazaar while in "the full tide of successful operation." The ladies of Roches- 
ter have always been distinguished for their hearty zeal " in every good word 
and work." But their kindly sympathies never shone out more resplendently 
than in this Bazaar, nor were their angelic ministrations ever more abundantly 
rewarded. They will to-night have deposited $12,000 as the result of their 



NOTICES OF THE PRESS. 13 

week's labor ; and twelve thousand suffering heroes will "call them blessed," 
as they partake of the needed comforts which these dollars will secure to 
them. 

These Bazaars involve immense labor ; and the ladies of course needed the 
co-operation of the other sex. And they have had it. Young and old have 
vied with each other in assuming and performing whatever duties were assign- 
ed them. Everybody seemed at work, and the result is a success as unex- 
{)ected as it is gratifying. Indeed, but for this unanimity, there could not have 
)een this succe.ss ; and like unanimity will secure (but it is indispensable to) 
like success elsewhere. 

There are several features of this Bazaar deserving special notice. The 
booths are got up in excellent taste. The characteristic features of the several 
nationalities represented, are admirably preserved. " Italy " has just what one 
would look for in Italy ; and so of " Russia," " China" " Germany," and the 
"United States," while the "Yankee" booth, witli its "notions," sweet cider, 
dough-nuts, jackknives, and sucli like, and the booth of "Young America," 
with its jaunty "fixings " and " fast " commodities, are conclusive of the dis- 
crimination with which everything has been arranged by the managing minds 
of the grand affair. 

TheAlbanians who have visited the Bazaar (and a number have) have found 
the ''Yankee" booth quite attractive, from the fact that "Mrs. Sophronia 
Slick," who is inimitable in the personation of her assumed part, is an Albany 
lady, whose well known Dutch lineage would not have been presumed to have 
so fully qualified her to so perfectly represent the character of a" down-east " 
Yankee matron. If " Sophronia " had been freshly imported from the banks 
of the Penobscot, she could not have been more "genuine." 

The "side-show," made up of various stuffed birds and animals, with a pre- 
served mummy, a live monkey and a black cat, puts sixty or eighty dollars a 
day into the treasury, simply because Geo. Darling's lecture on the " Anamile 
Creation " is inimitably humorous. The Polar bear is "Greeley standing on 
the Chicago platform ;" the hyena is" Vallandigham nosing around for votes J^ 
in Canada ; " the tnuramy is "a fine living specimen of a Silver Gray Whig," ' 
and so on through the whole catalogue of fish, flesh and fowl. Every thing 
has its counterpart, and the semblance is enforced with a serious drollery, 
which insures abundant success to tlie humorous appeals of the vociferous door- 
keeper. The Albany Bazaar will be imperfect without something like this 
magazine of fun for the million. But who will deliver the lectures ? 

During the day, from 12 to 4, the Hall is made a great dining room, and 
many hundreds "daily avail themselves of it to get a good dinner, and in that 
way contribute to the general fund. As nearly everything eaten is furnished 
gratuitously by the farmers and citizens, the profits are large. The young 
ladies who wait upon the tables, are uniformly attired in red, white and blue — 
the red skirts being composed of tlie flannel purchased, and to be liereatter 
used, for shirts for soldiers. Each skirt is made up of two shirt bodies tacked 
together, to be hereafter separated for their destined use. No soldier will 
object to a garment having such a history. 

I find among tlie most active in doing what has to be done, many gray- 
haired matrons, whose sons and brotliers are in the field, and whose hearts are 
full of patriotic ardor for the old flag. And, associated with them, are the 
'youth and beauty"of the city — every one of whom deserves special mention, 
but who are content, in the prosecution of their work of love, with the con- 
sciousness that their labors will contribute to the comfort of the brave men 
who are suffering for their country's weal. 

As appendages of the Bazaar, there is a Picture Gallery, composed of the best 
paintings of all the houseliolds in the city, and a Stereoscope room— both of 
which draw largely. The managers of our Bazaar will not overlook these at- 
tractive adjuncts. 

But the room ! Ah me, what discomfort ! Neither Corinthian Hall here, 
nor Tweddle Hall in Albany, are at all adequate in space. Is there no substi- 
tute 1 Is a new building impracticable ? If not. I hope it may be erected ; for 
there can be neither comfort nor liberality in such a dense jam as will be inev- 
itable in any hall available in Albany or elsewhere. — Ji'dUorial Correspondence 
of the Albany Evening Jov/rnal. G. D.

DESCRIPTION OF THE BAZAAR. 



DESCEIPTIOE". 

The Bazaar included four departments, viz : 

The Bazaar Proper, in Corinthian Hall; the Art Gallery, in the 
Rooms of the Athenaeum ; the Stereopticon Exhibition, in No. 5, 
Corinthian Hall Building; and the Exchange Street Depot, at 
Nos. 7 and 9, Masonic Hall Block, Exchange Street. 

The following diagram of the arrangement in Corinthian Hall, 
taken from the " Bulletin," exhibits the plan of the Bazaar 
Proper : 




Each booth occupies a space of about nine feet in front, and from ten to 
twelve deep, the National Booth being twice the breadth and three or four 
feet deeper than any other. 

An article from the last number of the Bulletin, with some 
additional particulars introduced, will give a good general idea of 
the various booths. It was the design to open the Bazaar every 
evening in tableau, the booths being arranged in easy tableau to 
continue about fifteen or twenty minutes ; a Fairy tableau likewise, 
being arranged upon the platform. But, owing to the difficulty of 
having these all ready in season, and of keeping the crowd waiting 
outside, the attempt was relinquished after the third evening. 

Panorama of the Bazaar. 

From the ''Bulletin," Dec. VJth. 
In taking leave, editorially, of the Bazaar, we are promp ted to 
make a rapid circuit of its arrangements from the entrance around 



PANORAMA OF THE BAZAAR. 15 

the amphitheatre, with a view, more particularly, to bringing out 
the significance of the various costumes and characters. For this 
purpose we will take the Bazaar in Tableau.. 

The first booth encountered on entering, is the Russian, sur- 
mounted by a lofty, snow capped dome, and partially surrounded by 
the northern pines in their wintry dress of snow and icicles. 
Within, amply protected from the frosts of a northern winter, by 
thick hangings of costly furs, are a group of five : a Russian 
G-eneral, who has added more than a cubit to his stature by the 
tower of fur surmounting his figure ; a tradeswoman in a strikingly 
picturesque dress, ; a young peasant girl and two Russian ladies 
They ofier for sale a large assortment of goods appropriate to a 
Siberian climate, as furs, worsted articles, skates, sleds, &c., be- 
sides a variety of ornamental articles in Russian leather. 

A peep at the next, transports us in a twinkling from furs to 
fans, as our Fahrenheit suddenly rises from 40 ° below zero to 100 '^ 
above. Rich hangings and brilliant costumes evince the luxury of 
the South, and the magnificence of Oriental life. Within sits the 
grand Turk, enjoying the acme of Turkish bliss, the pipe; at a 
little distance reclines the Sultana, attended by the Circassian and 
Greek. 

We next look in upon beautiful Italy, where pictures, statues and 
vases abound, and which is represented by an Italian peasant and 
three or four peasant girls in holiday attire. We glance next at the 
Emerald Isle, amply stored with attractions for the crowd of 
buyers, and presided over by Irish gentlemen and ladies, the latter 
in a beautiful and becoming costume of green and white. 

And now we are landed at the home of the inevitable Yankee, 
where we are encountered by the enterprising firm of Jonathan 
Slick & Co., consisting of old Mrs. Slick and her three children, 
Jonathan, Sophronia and Jerusha. Of the daughters, " Sophrony" 
is evidently the business character, while Jerusha sports the airs 
and graces of a country belle, having just returned from " boardin' 
school." It would be difficult to imagine a Yankee Notion not 
found in this booth, while the adjoining " side show," a branch of 
the firm, where the "animiles" are exhibited, winding up with 
the " live mummy" and " cherry colored cat," is one of the richest 
things in the comic way to be found. It is constantly filled, and 
the shouts of laughter every now and then from the audience 
within, attest that they are enjoying their 15 cents worth of fun. 

The Stars and Stripes floating above us now tell of a transfer to 



16 PANORAMA OP THE BAZAAR. 

National soil, " The Land of the Free, and the Home of the 
Brave." The National booth, double the size of any other, is 
stored, of course, with the greatest variety of articles. Its em- 
blematic representation, in the opening tableau, is particularly fine. 
The National group includes five emblematical figures, besides the 
representations of Washington, Lady Washington and Contraband. 

The Goddess of Liberty, beautifully arrayed in the Star and 
Stripe Costume, with a starry crown, and supporting the Flag, 
forms the central figure. Immediately around her are three figures 
representing the national colors, red, white and blue ; while at her 
left, is an emblematic representation of New York ; and at her 
right, Washington, Lady Washington and Contraband. New York 
is draped in white, wearing upon her head, as the Empire State, a 
crown, upon which glistens a single brilliant star. She wears a 
scarf of red, white and blue, significant of her loyalty to the 
Union ; one arm leans upon her Coat-of-Arms, and over the other, 
resting in her lap, falls a cable attached to the anchor, the emblem 
of her commercial preeminence. The Costumes of the " Red, 
White and Blue," are among the most admired in the Hall, for 
their novelty and beauty. They were devised by the young ladies 
who wear them, and are in the military style, the white costume 
having trimmings of blue, the blue of red, and the red of white. 
Little military caps corresponding in style with the dress, are worn 
with a very becoming effect. Washington and Lady appear in 
their bridal costume, as represented in portraits. We are glad to 
hear that Powelson has perpetuated this group in one of his beau- 
iful photographs. 

To the right of this, occupying rather a second compart- 
ment of the picture, is the Shaker group, consisting of Brother 
Broadbrim and three demure sisters. They have a full supply of 
exquisite Shaker products and plenty of " apple butter." 

Now we hail Young America, personated by a younger Major 
General, carrying on an animated flirtation with an extremely fash- 
ionable little Miss of nine or ten summers. The booth is stocked 
with fancy articles, principally the handiwork of the little girls 
who arranged it. 

There is the Gipsey tent occupied by three or four bewitching 
looking Gipseys, one of whom, it is said, predicts such doleful 
events, that her poor victim after paying for his fortune in advance, 
gladly pays a second price to induce her to stop. 



PANORAMA OP THE BAZAAR. 17 

The entrance to the Wigwam of the Grand Sachem is close by 
within which are four swarthy Aborigines, consisting of two 
squaws and a young Pocahontas beside the Sachem himself. The 
Wigwam abounds with the beautiful products of their work, and 
the representations of character are excellent; one in particular 
attracts much attention as a remarkably perfect impersonation of 
the Indian Squaw. 

England and Scotland appear next, under the branching horns of 
the deer, attended by two " Highland Laddies" and three " High- 
land Lassies " and a bag piper, the latter of whom regales the audi- 
ence at intervals with his inimitahle music. This is the eldest mem- 
ber of the " Booth Family," having been the first one taken in charge, 
and it presents a complete and choice assortment of appropriate 
articles, among which the plaid styles bear sway. 

Germany and Switzerland look like Christmas in full bloom, with 
the Christmas tree in the background, and toys enough elsewhere 
to set all the children wild with delight. A delegation of Swiss, 
German and Hungarian peasantry are in attendance and ready to 
supply their customers with Santa Clans' choicest gifts. 

Tread softly now, on approaching the precincts of the Celestials, 
where sit the sublime Mandarin and three or four majestic ladies 
of rank, all descended from the sun, moon and stars. We are 
dazzled with the splendor of every thing here, and so overawed 
by names and things we never heard or dreamed of before, that we 
quicken the pace that brings us vis-a-vis with sunny, smiling, vine 
clad France, a land we always love, when we forget that it is the 
land of Louis Napoleon. A tradesman with two ladies and shop 
girl will display to you th^ thousand beautiful things in their bril- 
liant stock, with all the French grace and affability. 

Upon the platform blooms Fairy Land, the arrangements of 
which are due to the taste and skill of Mr. Otto, connected with 
the extensive nursery of Frost and Brothers. Large wreaths of 
evergreens and flowers depend from the ceiling, in a tent form, at- 
tached to arches at the opposite ends of the platform. A fountain 
plays in the centre against a background of rocks and trees ;. the 
foreground is ornamented with various flowering plants, and in the 
trees around are birds of beautiful plumage. It was the original 
design to present here a Fairy tableau every evening, at the opening 
of the hall, but, after the second, on Wednesday evening, the design 
was abandoned for the same reason that the booth tableaux were 
2 



18 PANORAMA OF THE BAZAAR. 

discontinued. The two given were " Young Columbia," on Monday 
and Tuesday evenings, and on Wednesday evening, " Undine's 
Dream," in both which all the figures introduced, with the excep- 
tion of Undine, were tiny children from two and a half to five or six 
years old. The first tableau is an emblematic representation of 
the national wealth of our young country. Young Columbia, person- 
ated by a little child three years and a half old, in blue with silver 
stars, wearing a crown of stars, and holding the flag, is represented as 
receiving tribute from the various Glenii of her realm. On her 
right are the Genius of the mine, in crimson and gold, offering 
jewels, and Flora laden with flowers; on her left, Pomona brings 
fruit; Nautila, arrayed in sea green and corals, steps from her 
little boat with her burden of shells and pearls, and the young 
Archer in green and gold, his bow and arrow in hand, lays the fruit 
of the chase at her feet. The second, is the vision Undine saw in 
her dream of the land above the sea, she had long wished to visit. 
She dreamed of standing by a fountain in Fairy land, in the midst 
of little Fairies, exhibiting to her the attractions of earth, its flow- 
ers, fruits, birds, gems, groves, &c., while one points her to the sky 
spangled with stars. 

Near the door stands the cynosure of children's eyes, in the 
tasteful confectionery arbor, and opposite, under the arch at the 
side of the platform, is an array of all the perfumes of Araby. 

In front of the platform is the refreshment table, loaded with 
the luxuries lavished upon it by ladies in the city and vicinity. 
During the day a dozen smaller tables, seating eight persons each, 
occupy the floor, each presided over by a lady in charge, assisted by 
her corps of young lady waiters. The 'latter, in their pretty, be- 
coming costume; red skirt, white apron and waist, blue peasant 
waist, and jaunty little cap, add much to the picturesque effect of 
the whole. 

Above the National booth is the gallery for the band, whence we 
are enlivened with music, vocal and instrumental. From this point 
a very striking view of the gay whirl below is afforded. 

Not the least interesting feature in our panorama, is the dense 
crowd, penetrating to every inch of available space, and rendering 
any attempt to pass from one point to another almost an impossibil- 
ity. A slow current sets inward and outward during the greater 
part of the evening, thus allowing patient waiters outside a late 
ingress, and maintaining undiminished to a late hour, the density of 



THE ART GALLERY. 19 

the throng, that never seems to tire of the fascination of the brilliant 
scene. 



The following statements concerning the Art Gallery and 
Stereopticon Exhibition are kindly furnished us by ladies con- 
nected with those departments: 

The Art Gallery. 

The Art Gallery in connection with the Bazaar, proved one of its 
most agreeable features, and a decided success. 

When the idea was first suggested, it seemed almost impractica- 
ble, as the collecting of so large a number of valuable pictures 
from private residences incurred so great risks, that it was feared 
many would feel a hesitancy in allowing them to be removed. But 
wherever the plan was mentioned, it met with a ready response and 
hearty co-operation. 

The Board of Directors of the Athenaeum and Mechanics' Asso- 
ciation very generously gave the Ladies the use of the Reading 
Room, and kindly and graciously consented, for the week, to consult 

their 

'■ maps of busy life, 
Its fluctuations and its vast concerns," 

in a condensed form in the Library. 

The desks were all removed, the light excluded, and arrangements 
made in the gas fittings, after the most approved plan of lighting 
an Art Gallery — and day was turned into night. The effect upon 
the pictures was very beautiful, all having the advantage of an 
equally good light. 

The Ladies of Bufi'alo entered most enthusiastically into this new 
feature of our Bazaar, and with that hearty generosity which 
ever characterizes all such acts in our sister city, contributed fif- 
teen or twenty very beautiful works from the pencils of some of the 
first American artists — Sontag, whose delightful little renderings of 
scenery among the White Hills make him a general favorite — 
Beard, who is almost inimitable in his little animal subjects — Geo. 
H. Hall, whose fruit is always so luscious and tempting — " The 
Steeple Chase," from the French school, a warm, sunny picture, 
full of life and action, bright, happy faces of rollicking, fun-loving 
childhood, attracted general admiration, and all were very valuable 
acquisitions. 



20 THE ART GALLERY. 

At the north end of the room, and the first to attract notice, 
was a fine allegorical picture, " The Stages of Life 3" a very old 
painting, the date just distinguishable, 1514. Near this, on the 
west side, were two very old pictures, believed to be original Ho- 
garths, from his celebrated series, " The Rake's Progress " — cer- 
tainly bearing evidence of great age, and of interest to all art 
students. Another fine old original was a " Head of Judith," by 
Christofa Allori — " Innocence," by Romanelli; — a valuable picture, 
a head of " Csesar Borgia." " The Banished Lord," a copy after 
Rembrandt, possessed great strength of color. 

Many fine copies from the most celebrated works of the old mas- 
ters, which have been selected in Europe with great care and taste, 
adorned the walls, among which were Gruido's "Aurora" and "Bea- 
trice Cenci." 

Raphael's "La Fornarina" — several fine copies of " Madonnas," 
after Raphael — "Magdalens" after Correggio and Carlo Dolce — 
Titian's " Flora," and a " Portrait of Titian," from a painting by 
himself. 

Among those from the G-erman school was a candlelight efiect. A 
young girl standing near an open door, through which she is about 
to pass, holding a lighted candle, which she shades with her hand, 
throwing the reflection full upon her face — one of those sweet faces, 
beaming with the love of home and friends, which seems almost to 
speak the words "Good night." " Reading the News," by Notter- 
man, a beautiful little genre piece, full of life. " The Toilette," a 
little gem by Rustige, exquisite in detail. — Three beautiful little 
pictures, " Indians on a Rock," " The Russ Sleigh," and " Salmon 
Spearing by Torchlight," by Krieshofi". A fine architectural view, 
" Rosslyn Chapel," by Steinbruck — whose name only need be men- 
tioned ; and an " Interior of a French Cottage," were admii-able in 
their detail. 

From the pencil of Lilly Spencer, who stands unrivalled in her 
rendering of every-day life, was the well known picture, " The 
Power of Fashion," which told its own story. William Hart was 
admired in two beautifully rare bits of color, " Morning " and 
" Night." 

Our Home Artists were all represented by some of their finest 
productions, among which " A Portrait of Dr. Brown," by Gr. Gil- 
bert; " A Portrait of Squire Clarke," by C. Kimble; and a crayon 
head of the late Rev. Dr. Pease, by J. M. Mundy, attracted much 



THE ART GALLERY. 21 

notice, ^mong the landscapes, many of which were of the highest 
merit, were some by Hilger and Nehlig of the Dusseldorf school, 
and others, much admired, by our Home artists. 

Among the gifts to the Association was the fine piece of statuary, 
" Sabrina," suggested to the artist by a beautiful passage in Mil- 
ton's Comus : 

"Sabrina fair, 

Listen where thou art sitting 
Under the glassy, cool, translucent wave, 
In twisted braids of lilies knitting 
The loose train of thine amber-dropping hair ; 
Listen for dear honor's sake. 
Goddess of the silver lake, 
Listen and save. 

This was placed in the centre of the room, and added greatly to 
the general effect and beauty of the Gallery. 

A fine Landscape, " The Vale of Chamouni," was a generous do- 
nation from Thos. Mack, Esq., of Boston. 

There was an universal expression of satisfaction and delight from 
all who visited the G-allery, and the many pleasant hours enjoyed 
in the quiet study of so much beauty, after spending a tin^e amid 
the Babel of the Grand Bazaar, will long be remembered. And as 
the time drew near for its close, there was a general expression of 
regret. " Would that it might be permanent !" was on the lip and 
in the heart of almost every one ; but with the "Christmas Bazaar" 
the " Art Gallery" lived its short life, and is among the things that 
were. 

Many homes in our city, whose walls for the time were robbed of 
their picture windows, many of which were rare gems, must have 
seemed very desolate. But as our highest happiness consists in 
making others happy, the hearts of all the contributors must have 
been doubly blest, not only in the feeling that so much enjoyment 
was given to the immediate visitors to the Gallery ; but also in the 
fact that, far away in desolate camps, and through the crowded 
hospitals, the light and cheer from the impromptu Art Gallery 
would shine, and illumine and encourage many a weary, fainting 
heart. 

Appended will be found a full Catalogue of the Paintings and 
Contributors.

The Stereopticon Exhibition. 

The Stereoscopic Department of the Bazaar should not be over- 
looked in our report, as it was one of the most interesting and at- 
tractive features of the Exhibition. 

It occupied two rooms nearly opposite the Art Gallery, one of 
which was used as a salesroom for Ambrotypes in unique carved 
wood and rustic frames, which attracted many admirers ; also rose- 
wood, and passepartout. The collection of card Photographs was 
very fine, and a large number were sold, at prices which satisfied 
every one. Beside these we had a splendid assortment of Photo- 
graph Albums, which were furnished us, by one of our most prom- 
inent dealers, at a discount that enabled us to make a very handsome 
profit. The second room was the centre of all attraction, in which 
were placed ten large stereoscopes, containing nearly a thousand 
very fine views, of almost endless variety. One could easily imag- 
ine himself in some fairy land, surrounded by scenes too beautiful 
for earth — and then suddenly you would find yourself transported 
to some battle-field strewed with dead and dying, or to a grand wa- 
terfall, or, perchance, to some gay and festive drawing-room scene. 
The statuary in these was exceedingly good. The gas lights were 
arranged in such a manner as to give a much finer effect to the 
views than the best sun-light. From this room were sold the tickets 
upon the Chickering Piano, which elicited the admiration of every

one who heard its rich tones. " This is the place where you gel 
the worth of your money," wag the expression made by many of 
those who visited this department. 



OEGAl^IZATIOI^. 

At the special meeting previously alluded to, held Sept. 30th, a 
committee was appointed, subsequently termed the Financial Com- 
mittee, embracing twelve members ; the seven officers of the Socie- 
ty, viz: President, two Vice Presidents, Recording and Corres- 
ponding Secretaries, Treasurer and Superintendent of Rooms, and 
five others named by the President, whose duty it was made to 
devise plans for raising funds, and to conduct any such plan after 
its adoption by the Society. To those duties was afterward added 
the general care of the funds thus raised. 

This Committee became, in virtue of this action, the Committee 
of Arrangements of the Bazaar, and accordingly prepared a plan 
of organization, which contemplated, however, only the arrange- 
ments in Corinthian Hall, or the Bazaar proper, the other depart- 
ments being added at different times afterward. The general plan 
embraced, in separate articles, the main points to which were appen- 
ded various special plans designed as guides to special committees. 
The following is an abstract of these articles, briefly expressing the 
several points. 

G-eneral Plan of Organization. 

1. The place and time for holding the Bazaar, viz.: Corinthian 
Hall, and Dec. 14th to 22d, inclusive, from 12 M. to 5 P. M., and 
7 to 11 P. M. 

2. The features of the Bazaar : Booths, Refreshment tables and 
Platform Exhibitions. [The latter subsequently dropped.] 

3. Sjjecial Committees: a Committee for each Booth, a Committee 
on Refreshments, a Committee on Platform Arrangements, and Com- 
mittees on Constructing the Bazaar, on Lighting it, on Receiving 
and Marking such donated articles as were sent to no particular 
department, on Music, Tickets, Printing, Police, and a General 
Treasurer. 

4. General duty of each Committee : to take the entire respon- 
sibility of the business pertaining to it, excepting where this busi- 



26 COMMITTEE ON REFRESHMENTS. 

ness conflicts with the business of another Committee, in which 
case it is regulated by the General Committee. 

5. Duties of Chairman of each Committee : 1st. To appoint her 
own Committee, where this is not done by the General Committee ; 
2nd. To fill vacancies and make any additional desired appointments. 
3d. To organize her Committee where this is not done by the General 
Committee, assigning specific duties to individual members ; 4th. 
To act as Treasurer of her Committee, or appoint a substitute, 
whose duty it shall be to take charge of and keep a record of all 
receipts and expenses pertaining to her Committee, appointing a 
Cashier during the sales, settling all bills and depositing receipts 
with the General Treasurer ; 5th. To report to the General Com- 
mittee, on a day to be appointed for that purpose, all expenses 
incurred, and all receipts, whether by sale or donation. 

6. Modifications ; The foregoing plan can be modified at any 
time by the General Committee. Any member of a Committee, to 
whom a specific duty is assigned, can serve by deputy, provide a 
substitute, or alternate, or appoint associates, at her own discre- 
tion. 

Organization of the Committee on Refreshments. 

1st. General Duty : The whole charge of everything pertaining 
to refreshments. 

2nd. Suh-Divisions : Into three Sub-Committees, viz.: 1st. On 
Soliciting Edibles ; 2d. On Furnishing Tables ; 3d. On Supplying 
Tables. 

3d. Duties of the Suh- Committees : 1st. Of the Committee on 
Soliciting Edibles ; to solicit edibles from city and country, each in 
the district assigned her, and to receive and credit each, what she 
has solicited, at some appointed time and place. 2nd. Of the 
Committee on Furnishing Tables ; to borrow, hire or buy all arti- 
cles necessary for furnishing the tables, taking charge of the same 
until returned, each member of the Committee taking some specific 
articles in charge. 3d. Of the Committee on Supplying the 
Tables; To take charge of edibles from the hands of the first 
Committee, to make all arrangements for their preparation for sale, 
supplying deficiencies by purchase or otherwise, and to conduct the 
sales ; a part of the Committee taking each some specific articles in 
charge, and others assisting generally. 



THE EXCHANGE STREET DEPOT. 27 

4th. Appointment of Sub- Committees ; To be appointed by the 
Charman of the Whole Committee on Refreshments. 

No plans of organization were proposed by the General Commit- 
tee, beyond the conditions named in the general plan, for any other 
Special Committee. The Booths were taken in charge each by a 
lady or ladies, solicited, or volunteering for that purpose, the lady in 
charge thus becoming Chairman, and arranging her own Commit- 
tee. In every other Committee the duties were so limited and 
specific as to require no special organization. 

A change was made in the duties of the Committee on Platform 
Arrangements, which were first<designed to include a series of 
tableaux. But it was deemed inexpedient to have exhibitions 
during the evening upon the platform, and, as the latter was una- 
vailable for sales, from the necessity of limiting access to a single 
point, and that an inconvenient one, it was assigned mainly to orna- 
ment, and arranged as Fairy Land, the end of the platform adjoin- 
ing the entrance being appropriated to the sale of flowers and 
perfumery. 

The above arrangements do not include the departments after- 
ward added, viz : The Art Glallery, Stereopticon Exhibition, and 
Depot for Agricultural and Manufactured Products on Exchange 
Street. These were organized and conducted entirely by the ladies 
and gentlemen in charge. 

The Exchange Street Depot. 
This was opened at Nos. 7 and 9 Masonic Hall Block, a day or 
two previous to the opening of the Bazaar, under the superintend- 
ence of Mr. W. H. H. Barton, for the reception of donations that were 
not appropriate to the hall, such as agricultural products and manu- 
factures of all kinds. Some valuable contributions were made 
here, but owing to the late period of commencing this branch of 
operations, there was not time for enlisting the general interest 
which would doubtless, otherwise have yielded large accessions to 
our stores from these sources.

SPECIAL ACKNOWLEDaEMENTS. 45 



SPECIAL ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS. 



In cases where ordinary charges for value received have been 
remitted to us, we have requested a bill of the same for entry upon 
our list of donations. This, however, in many instances, does but 
meagre justice to the generous donations, or to our appreciation of 
it, and we are impelled to express our acknowledgements in a less 
statistical manner. This has already been done in three or four in- 
stances, but there are others, and more than our space will allow us 
to mention, of which we would gladly speak, among which are some 
possessing especial claims upon our regard. First among these 
stands the 

Munificent Donation of the G-as Company, 

all the gas burned during the Bazaar having been, by the action of 
the Company, one telling largely for their liberality and patriotism 
on this occasion, made free to us. They have furnished us no esti- 
mate of the amount consumed, but we know that it must have 
been enormous. 

As a sequel to this comes in the prompt and 

Liberal Contribution of Messrs. Sherlock & Sloan, 

who, upon being requested to take charge of the business of light- 
ing the hall, at once proffered their services and the use of all nec- 
essary fixtures without charge. Those who know the extensive 
nature of the arrangements required to light all the booths, will 
understand the amount of labor and material involved, and the 
obligations we are under to these gentlemen for the hrilliant scenes 
of our Bazaar. We owe to them also the patriotic device in which 
the word and number " Union" and " 76," our sacred national 
watchwords, were made to glitter in burning letters over the Nation- 
al booth, adding much to its national effect. 



46 SPECIAL ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS. 

Nor shall we forget, while we remember the beautiful Fairy 
Land, that it was mainly a 

Generous Tribute from the Nursery of Frost & Brothers, 
the gentlemen connected with which, having freely furnished not 
only trees, plants, and other materials for adorning it, but likewise 
the artistic taste and skill which combined these in that charming 
little landscape, so much admired for its novelty and beauty. In 
connection with this, we cannot suppress a passing testimonial to 
the skill and faithfulness of the young ladies assisting, who devoted 
so many days and evenings to preparing the long wreaths used in 
the decorations. 
To another source. 

The Rochester Athenaeum, 

our special thanks are due for the free use of their rooms, so favor- 
able to this purpose, for our Art Glallery. May they have crowded 
audiences throughout their lecture season ! 

The gentlemen who donated the insurance on Corinthian Hall 
have also our grateful acknowledgements. 

One word, a hearty " thank you," to the ladies of Lima and 
Albion, who have been especially zealous in behalf of our Bazaar; 
and a general " G-od bless you" to so many others, beyond our city, 
who have been eifective co-workers with us ; and we must close our 
special acknowledgements with the following very interesting cor- 
respondence, which requires no additional comments from us. 

Rochester, Dec. 14, 1863. 
Mrs. "W. Barron Williams, President Ladies' Hosjntal Relief Association : 

The Hebrew ladies of this city, having been requested to represent the Jew- 
ish nationality in the Bazaar, concluded that from a national point of view they 
should consider themselves above all as Americans, and the only national char- 
acter in which they wished to appear would be under the Star Spangled 
Banner, the glorious flag of the Union — the banner of civil and religious lib- 
erty. They therefoie offered their services individually, and several of them 
are now busily engaged in the Bazaar. 

But at the same time, our ladies concluded to open a subscription, the result 
of which is the enclosed check for $400, which we present in the name of the 
Jewish ladies of Rochester, with their wishes that it may help to relieve the 
sufferings of our wounded patriotic soldiers, and soon return them to their 
brave comrades in the field, to give the final blow to that criminal attempt to 
destroy this Union, in the uiaintenance of which none are more interested than 
our Jewish fellow-citizens. Very respectfully. 

S. STETTHEIMER, 
President Hebrew Congregation. 
A. Stern, Vice-President. 



SPECIAL ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS. 47 

Rochester, Dec. 15, 
Messrs. Stettheimer and Stern; 

Oentiemen : — Permit me, in the name of our Association, to acknowledge 
through you the receipt of your generous donation of Four Hundred Dollars, 
from the Hebrew ladies of this city. While we regret that the Jewish ladies 
of Rochester do not take a conspicuous part in tiie'Bazaar, we appreciate the 
individual services which they have rendered, and are still rendering, and sym- 
pathize with their love for the Starry Banner of our common country, which 
makes them unwilling to represent the Jewish nationality under any otlier 
flag. Very respectfully, W. B. WILLIAMS, 

President H. R. Association, 

An interesting incident was a donation from England, in tte 
sliape of a £5 note, from two ladies, Mrs. A. B. Rowlandson and 
Mrs. S^^Osfeome, St. Ives, Huntingdonshire, through a friend in 
the Shaker booth. We are permitted to publish the following ex- 
tract from the letter enclosing it : 

We feel great interest in the Bazaar you are going to have on the 14th inst., 
and my sister and I hope you will accept a small donation from us (£3), to 
add to its funds; and we only wish it was in our power to give a larger sum. 
We most sincerely wish this noble undertaking every success. 

It is pleasant thus to hear from the " Mother Land," the one, of 
all others, whose hearty sympathy we had hoped to have wholly 
with us in our great struggle. Such tokens as these tell us that, 
despite the howls of the malignant " Times" and others of that ilk, 
there is a chord of friendliness in the great heart of the nation, 
vibrating in unison with our own. 

We must be allowed to speak here of the splendid Afghan, 
crocheted (knit? ) by the Misses Northrup, for the National booth. 
It surpasses in beauty anything of the kind hitherto produced in 
the city, and realized to the booth a clear profit of $179.00. About 
$10.00 of this is due to the liberal arrangements made with the 
young ladies by Mrs. Kimball, of whom the worsteds were procured, 
by which she allowed broken parcels to be returned. 

The following letter was received from Major General Grant, in 
reply to the solicitation of Brigadier General Quinby, (on behalf of 
the association,) for a lock of his hair : 

Chattanooga, Tennessee, Dec. 13th, 1863. 
Mrs. I. F. Quinby : 

My Deal- Madam. : — The letter of my old friend and classmate, your 
husband, requesting a lock of my hair, if the article is not growing scarce, from 
age — I presume he means, to be put in an ornament (by the most delicate of 
hands no doubt,) and sold at the Bazaar for the benefit of disabled soldiers and 
their families — is just received. 

I am glad to say that the stock is yet abundant as ever, though time orother 
cause is beginning to intersperse here and there a reminder that winters have 



48 SPECIAL ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS. 

The object for which this little request is made is so praiseworthy that I can- 
Bot refuse it, even though I do, by granting it, expose the fact to the ladies of 
Rochester, that I am no longer a boy. 

Hoping that the citizens of your city may spend a happy week commencing 
to-morrow, and that this fair may remunerate most abundantly, I remain 
Very truly yoiir friend, U. S. GRANT, 

Major General U. S. A. 

Some inquiries have been made concerning the precise mode of 
disbursing our funds, inasmuch as we are not exclusively auxiliary 
to any one agency. We convert them as rapidly as possible into 
clothing, bedding and edibles for invalid soldiers, and forward them 
mainly through the channels of the U. S. Sanitary and Christian 
Commissions, reserving the privilege of sending occasionally through 
other agencies, as circumstances may seem to require. The Finan- 
cial Committee have invested $8,000 of our Bazaar fund tempora- 
rily in Grovernment Five-twenties, drawing interest, reserving the 
balance for immediate use. 

In conclusion, we congratulate our city upon having taken a po- 
sition in the front rank of those of equal size, in the great Soldiers' 
Aid work of the country. It has been a work, thus far, throughout 
our land, that has no parallel for earnestness and munificence in 
any other age or country. 

It is a work that is writing history equally with the more brilliant 
exploits of the field ; one that must be served with the latter, and 
even survive them, until the last soldier who has fought at the front 
to secure to us, in our peaceful homes, national rights as dear to us 
as to himself, shall cease to require our further aid. 

MISS K. B. LONa,

1-A.lXrO Ii^OI=t-TESS 



In regard to Piano Fortes, we take mucli pleasure in speaking of 
those sold by 



of this city, as we have become fully satisfied that the Pianos that 
he sells are the best that are now manufactured. 

Mr. Ellis has been a long time in the trade, which gives him 
many advantages, and being acquainted with all Manufacturers, he 
knows where he can purchase the best, and when we take in con- 
sideration the flattering testimonials which he is receiving from the 
most competent Judges from New York City, and elsewhere, in 
regard to the superiority of his Pianos, we must say -^that we 
speak understandingly when we say that they are the best. 

Mr. Ellis is constantly traveling and furnishing Pianos in all of 
our neighboring towns and villages, and is well known over almost 
the entire State, as well as the Canadas, where he has done a large 
trade, and the Canadian Press have given him the most liberal and 
flattering notices. Mr. E. intends soon to open a sales room in the 
most central part of the city, and will keep the largest and most 
extensive assortment of Pianos that can be found this side of New 
York City. The first prize Diploma was awarded to Mr. Ellis for 
the best Pianos exhibited over all others at the New York State 
Fair held at Rochester, 1862, 

MANUFACTURED BY 

KURTZMANN & HINZE, 

of which Mr. Ellis has the sole agency. Many dealers, when they 
have found the popularity of these instruments, have tried to secure 
an agency, but have been repulsed, as the Manufacturers, will not 
sell to any other dealers, except Mr. Ellis, who has the exclusive 
agency. 

Mr. Ellis is the only dealer in Western New York, that keeps 
Grand Pianos ; he has them constantly on hand, varying in price 
from $600 to $1200. 

In conclusion we would say to all that wish to purchase a first 
class Piano, call on 



a-Z ]Vt-A.IDIS03Nr ST., 

and he will give you a first class Piano Forte, and for less money 
than you can purchase elsewhere. Mr. Ellis will furnish Pianos 
of any manufacture that may be desired.

BRYANT, STRATTON & OOMPANY'S 
COMMEKCIAL COLLEGES. 

« 

THE ROCHESTER CON/IIVIERCIAU COl_l_EQE 
Is one of the CoUoges constituting " Bryant. Stratto.v & Co.'s Chain of International Com- 
mercial Colleges," located in eigUtec.n of tlie lai-^u-it citie:* of the rftatin aiiJ C inula. 
THE DESIGN. 
The design of these Institution.* is to qualify young men and ladies f )r the practical dulios 
of business life, cither as Uook-Keepeis, or in the management of their own aflairs with sys- 
tem and dispatch. 

TWO DEPARTIVIENJTS OF INSTRUCTION. 

In this Institution two separate departments have been established for the better accommo- 
dation and more rapid advantenioiit of the students ; also, a new classification of accounts, 
which does away with many of tbe mysteries of Book-Keeping, and renders the whole more 
attractive and easier of comprehension. 

THEORETICAl- DEPARTIV1ENT. 

In this department the student commences his course. Here he acquires a thorough knowl- 
edge of the science of Bjok-Keeping, and receives thorough instruction in the rudiments of 
Mathematics, Penmanship, -BusiuesL, Correspondence, and Commercial Law. Jiach student is 
required to pass a satisfactory examination before entering the 

PRACTICAL. DEPARTtS/IENT. 

This is the model department, the ■' Sine qua non" in obtainins a business education. Here 
the student enters into actual business. Each student is furnished with necessary amount of 
cash and merchandise to commence business, he buys and sells Merchandise, Stocks, Real 
Estate, etc.. and is required to be accurate and systematic in the management of his affairs. 
In this department are two regularly organized Banks, with a bona-fide cash capital of $1000,- 
000, which enables the student to eftect his exchanges, make deposits, and transact all other 
business incidental to a general trade. All departments of business are hero represented, 
Merchandising, Commission, Forwarding, Railroading, Banking, etc 

l_ADIES' DEPARTN/IENT. 
Ladies' Collegiate Course same as Gentlemen's. 
The Ladies' Department is entirely distinct from the Students' Hall, and is superintended by 
Miss Maria S. Chapman, sister of the resident Principal. This department will accommodate 
all who prefer e.vclusive femaJe associations. 

^~ TELEGRAPHING. 

The prospective demand for operators renders this an important feature in a business educa- 
tion. We have the very best instruments, and students mav become good operators in a short 
time. 

ADVANTAGES OP ROCHESTER. 

Rochester is located in the garden of the Empire State, being surrounded by the finest agri- 
cultural ccmimunity in the world, and is noted for being one of the ni' st beautiful cities in the 
United States. Its extensive nurseries, beautiful lawns, and broad streets, the remarkable 
thrift and activity of its commercial enterprises, the hospitality of its inhabitanss, all combine 
to render the Rochester College one of the most desirable in the State. 

BOARDING. 

Board can be obtained at from S2 50 to SS3 50 par week. On application to the College, by 
letter or otherwise, special pains will be taken to secure excellent accommodations at these 

PREPARATOR'V EDUCATION. 

No one need be deterred from entering on account of want of preparatory education. It 
will only require a longer time to complete the course 

TIIVIE OF CCtVllVlENCINQ. 
Young men can commence at any time, as there are no vacations. 

TllVie REQUIRED. 
The average time required for completing the cimrse is from Ten to Fourteen weeks. But 
this depends entirely on the student: some requiring twice as long as others. 
SITUATIONS. 
Situations are more readily obtained now than they have been before for several years. 
Many of our students get situations ln^foio they have completed thecourse. The inducemonts 
for taking a Commercial Course never were more flattering than at present.

OPINIONS OF PRESS AND PEOPLE. 



From tlie lia.'il y examination we liave boon aWo to pive, 
wo should consiik-r it as embodying all that is nccnssary 
to l)u known on the .suiiiect. and tlio name of'tlio autliof, 
Hon. H. S. Randall, of New York, wlio is known as a 
well Informed writer on stoek-growing, is a guarantee of 
Us completeness and TcliabUity.— Maine Farmer. 

As a whole, this book is unquestionably In advance of 
any(.hln;T of the kind now Dofore tlie irnhVic—Coinilri/ 
Gentleman ami Cultivator. 

The reputation of the author— who ranks as rA« author- 
ity in this country upon all that i^ertains to the breeding 
and manairoment of sheep— will induce a largo and con- 
tinued demand for ''Tlie Practical Shepherd." — O/iio 
Farvier. 

The autlior lias brought together in this volume a rich 
fund of information on the round of topics connected 
with the sut)ject.— AVw York Observer. 

Mr. Kandall'.S book gives full directions for the treat- 
ment of the animal in health and disease, and has a very 
interesting chapter upon dogs, both as enemies and 
f r i en d s. - Si>rinijjicld Rijyublican. 

The l)ook is got up in a verj- creditable style, linely 
illustrated and" dearly printed on good paper anil hand- 
somely bound and ornamented.— JFooJ- Crowe;- and Man- 
ufacturer. 

In looking it over we Ihid evidence on every page of the 
great service lie has rendered to the wool-growing popu- 
lation and the country.— WVca Moriiirtg Herald. 



We learn that the Practical Shepherd, published less 
than two weeks ago, by Mr. Moobe, of the Rural Kev}- 
Yorker, has already reached a third e(titiim ! ^\ e are not 
surprised at the great success of tlils cajiilal and timely 
volume, as we predicted an immense sale in our notice of 
It a week aga.—Jiocliesicr Daily Democrat <fc Amaican. 

In this volume the author has exhausted the subject, 
and given all that it is necessary for any farmer to know 
about selecting, breeding, and general management of 
sheep. In healtli or sickness. We heartily commend this 
work to all who wish for a sound and thorough treatise 
on sheep husbandry.— iVcw York Tribune. 

The illustrations of sheep are by the best artists of 
New York, aiul well done. Tlie letter press and paper 
are all th;;t could be desired in a work of this descrip- 
tion. It will undoubtoflly meet with the large sale its 
merits demand.— Pyoicie Farmer. 

It strikes me as much the liest work yet jpublished for 
the American breeder; and it is unquestionably tho- 
rough, honest and impartial.— A. B. ALLEN, former Edi- 
tor American Apricvltvrist. 

It is the best practical sheep book, I think, ever pub- 
lislied, and does great credit to Dr. Randaix.— B. P. 
Johnson, &c'j/ N. Y. State Ag. Society. 

Tbo book is all that ask on dl cou any one the subject. 
It is the best of its kind, and superior to the heretofore 
standard— Youatt.—T. C. Pei lOKS, /oj-jncr Editor Wool- 
Grower.
